Äppelträd och päronträd, plommonträd och bigarå, alla ljusa jungfrur små, i små svarta flätor stå, rodnande i solen. Nyss var vinden lätt och späd, Hör, nu klingar hög och fri vårens hela melodi, hör, nu svinga broms och bi stråken för fiolen. Äppelträd och päronträd, plommonträd och bigarå, alla ljusa jungfrur små, [rodnande i solen stå]1 med små gröna spetsar på, rodnande i solen.

Apple trees and pear trees, plum trees and cherry, all the light little maidens, wearing little black braids, blushing in the sun. Just now the wind was light and delicate, Listen, now high and free rings spring's whole melody, listen, now the fly and bee swing the bow strokes the fiddle. Apple trees and pear trees, plum trees and cherry, all the light little maidens, are blushing in the sun with little green laces on, blushing in the sun.
